- It is better to turn off your computer daily while leaving office because it reduces risk of any unexpected electrical hazard that might occur from an unattended computer.
- Turning computer off means it is getting a break. We all know everything has a lifetime. The more the computer runs, the less its lifetime will be.
- It is a good practice. Your data is more safe when the PC is completely power off. Also re booting a machine improves performance. You should also check the workplace policy.
